For the delivery of my first baby, Melissa was the nurse who talked me through my pushing. I was very scared to deliver and in a lot of pain! Melissa was very informative and made my son's birth a breeze! She made me feel comfortable and made it easy for me to feel confident and brave to push! She was amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better nurse to be the one talking me through pushing my baby out!
When I was dilated to a 9, my baby was facing the wrong way and Melissa knew exactly what to do to help me turn him the right way! She also made me at ease and relaxed before my final pushes! I was in labor 20 hours and once I started pushing, it only took me 26 minutes to push out my son! This was definitely an experience of a lifetime! I will never forget this special event and I will never forget how special Melissa made it for me!
